1

If side x = 15cm, side y = 9cm, and side z = 12cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
29cm
24cm
31cm
36cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 15cm + 9cm + 12cm = 36cm


2

Solve for z:
6z - 6 < 8 + 9z

55% Answer Correctly
z < -\(\frac{2}{3}\)
z < -\(\frac{1}{2}\)
z < -4\(\frac{2}{3}\)
z < -1\(\frac{2}{3}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the < sign and the answer on the other.

6z - 6 < 8 + 9z
6z < 8 + 9z + 6
6z - 9z < 8 + 6
-3z < 14
z < \( \frac{14}{-3} \)
z < -4\(\frac{2}{3}\)


3

If the base of this triangle is 7 and the height is 9, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
90
91
31\(\frac{1}{2}\)
78

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 7 x 9 = \( \frac{63}{2} \) = 31\(\frac{1}{2}\)


4

On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:

46% Answer Correctly

radius

chord

diameter

circumference


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


5

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

90% Answer Correctly

2

5

3

4


Solution

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.
